The Biblical Plagues - Duel on the Nile (episode 1)
In a unique collaboration with top archaeologists at new excavation sites in the
Nile Delta, experts in the history of religion, and natural scientists investigating today’s ecological catastrophes, this series provides answers to some of the most intriguing questions of world history: did the
Ten Plagues really happen? Were the
Hebrews ever slaves in
Egypt? Was there ever an
Exodus? The film re-creates the
Plagues themselves with state-of the-art
CGI, the latest research of scientists, who at last understand what made these disasters occur.
Episode 1:
Duel on the
Nile
In the first episode of the three-part series, The
Biblical Plagues, scholars deal with the first six natural disasters
. In the Nile, scientists discovered deadly microorganisms that caused the fish to die and a stress situation among the frog population. They also found conclusive explanations for the enormous swarms of insects, the disease rampant among the livestock, and the dangerous boils afflicting all life forms.
Archeologists Dr.
Edgar Pusch and
Professor Manfred Bietak, renowned experts in their field, go one step further with their thesis: an ecological disaster, as documented in Exodus, turned Pi-Ramesses, the flourishing center of power for
Pharaoh Ramesses II, into a ghost town. A sustained drought period led to the collapse of the legendary metropolis on the Pelusiac
Branch of the Nile, forcing its population to search for a new home.
The documentary, “Duel on the Nile,” presents the spectacular results of the most recent scientific investigations and provides answers to one of the greatest mysteries of the Biblical world.
